Introducing Kaburan: A New Puzzle Board Game from Oink Games

Discover the Exciting World of Kaburan

Oink Games is set to launch its latest board game, "Kaburan", at the upcoming Game Market on May 23 and 24, 2026. General sales will commence on May 29. This innovative game skillfully blends traditional puzzle dynamics with strategic player interactions reminiscent of a chicken race. It's an update to the previously released "Town 77" from 2022, accommodating more players to enjoy the fun, now allowing up to five participants.

"Kaburan" can be enjoyed as a solitary puzzle or as a competitive game among two or more players. Players have to strategically place tiles while ensuring that the same shapes and colors don’t align in the same direction. It might seem simple, but players may find themselves stuck unexpectedly! It is perfect for those who love challenging their minds with Sudoku or crossword puzzles and are looking for a fun way to engage their brains.

In a town built on a 7×7 grid, players must carefully construct houses while avoiding repetitions in shapes and colors. The victor is the last player to finish building their houses, but the timing of when they reduce their hand size adds an exciting twist. A hasty reduction could limit options, while dawdling may leave no available spots to construct houses!

Whether playing solo to achieve a high score or engaging in a thoughtful competition with friends, "Kaburan" is designed to be addictively replayable, inviting players to dive in for just one more round.

Welcome to Kaburan

Will you make the cut in this finicky town where duplication is strictly prohibited? Players must navigate the challenge of placing house tiles without repeating colors or shapes either vertically or horizontally. The key question arises: where should one build? The intriguing combination of puzzle-solving and competitive strategy will gently stimulate players’ minds. Experience a game that is both accessible and complex at the same time!

Oink Games is committed to creating enjoyable and enriching gaming experiences, transcending digital and analog divides, and enhancing everyday life with their games.
